North Wildwood Fire Department Gas Line Fire And Response Videos 5-17-18

[@tomok8283]

Excellent video! What you did is keeping a safe distance from a very volatile situation! I thought the utility pole was going to burn as the flames were licking it big time! Back in 2000 their was a major gas leak right at the Morris Plains Parsippany border. Rt10 had to be closed in both directions! Finally the gas company arrived and shut off the gas. The biggest problem for ALL is that the ruptured gas main was in the woods!

[@demonracer2]

Thanks for watching!

[@emergencias_yuc]

Impressive the response level in the United Stated for a Gas Line Fire! Congratulations to all the emergency services. Fantastic footage, perhaps one of your best videos my friend!

[@demonracer2]

J. Magno Thank you so much!

[@BenjaminEsposti]

The reason for the big response is, I'd say, because of the risk of a gas explosion. Actually, since the gas was burning, it wasn't that great of a risk. BUT, _if_ there was a gas explosion, there could be multiple buildings on fire, and multiple victims in need of attention...

[@EyeWatchThemAll]

Also, that area (North Wildwood and Wildwood) has a LOT of wood frame constructed houses, the shops on the boardwalk, plus the boardwalk itself is all wood. The heat from those flames could've easily touched off a multiple dwelling fire.

[@Bigpimpdaddy69]

Also, wildwood (other than June July and August) is practically empty so they can afford to dispatch a shit load of people.

[@BenjaminEsposti]

Excellent video, buddy! Looks like they let it burn until the gas could be turned off. That's actually the safest option, because it lets the gas burn off, rather than dissipate in the environment and potentially seep into buildings, where it can result in an explosion.

[@shaunb9876]

Benjamin Esposti very true mate. It’s also quite hard to put it out with water anyways. We have tested the fire crews quite a few times at our yard for training. Most times they can’t put it out. Dry powder is way more effective. But it has its limits also depending on the size of the fire.

[@andyr8812]

And the problem was solved by.... turning off the gas.

[@MultiTurbospeed]

Even with the gas turned off it could take a while for the remaining gas to be burned off

[@chunkpowers]

let me give you some insight, you only need between 5% and 15% Gas mixture in the air for and explosion. be glad it was a high pressure main and not a low.At least the high pressure will burn and not explode as easy as a low pressure. Turning the gas is an easy solution but as Sam said , you still have all that gas to burn off first.

[@Quadflash]

Great coverage,DR2. The FD and North Wildwood were lucky that the gas ignited immediately.

As a German I have to say: When I see these electrical wires, I seriously wonder how the US could become such an economic powerhouse. In Germany, the technical inspection association would shut down everything immediately.

Anyways, love the other countries powerhouse envy. Thanks

[@BamaRailfan]

Most of the wires seen near the fire are for telecommunication (TV cable and phone company.) The only electrical lines are high above. There is only one electrical line that is even remotely in jeopardy and it is a 3 phase likely 480v line supplying power to the Dunkin Doughnut building.

b3j8 the chance of an explosion is very minimal it already ignitited and a unlimited pressurized source all gas release is being burnt off at exit comparable to cooking on a propane grill the danger is present but in the most part contained and controlled the main concern is additional exposures which they looked to be dealing with by cooling the building with the pipe (hose line)

how long does it take to get a gas supply turned off

[@tjlovesrachel]

anthony john ramsey lol.... as someone who works for a major utility provider in nyc.... sometimes the main valves are paved over .... sometimes these valve box covers are stuck... filled with debris .... and first you have to find the right main valve(s).... because gas can either be on a one way or 2 way feed.... so ... it’s not like just turning the knob on or stove.... and you have situations where the gas can be connected like a 4way tee... and you have to go to 4 different valves and shut them... so like I said .... it’s not that simple.... have a good one

[@canncukman779]

how many fire fighters does it take to put out a gasfire

[@PhillipRhodes]

Strictly speaking, none. The way a fire like this is extinguished is generally by cutting off the flow of gas somewhere upstream. That work is actually done by the utility company. BUT... what the fire department does in a case like this is protect exposures, and prevent the fire from spreading. In some rare situations, the FD may also use water streams to push the fire / heat away from a certain valve or component that the utility company needs to access in order to stop the flow of gas.

[@Bakermania12]

As a former volunteer firefighter I just want to ask does anyone think this is a bit of an overkill for response? Why was so many trucks needed. I understand exposure protection but a lot of man power standing around and lot of trucks out of service

[@evawissing5384]

Now I know that this is a dumb question but why was the ladder truck called too? was it for the man power?

[@karagregory69]

Why do many people? What else is burning? How many does it take to turn off a gas main?

[@44R0Ndin]

It probably only takes one person to turn off a gas main, but they have to be from the gas company to do it. The gas company likely doesn't keep someone posted to respond to emergencies 24/7, so it takes a while to get someone out there to shut the gas off. Meanwhile all the fire department can do is make sure nothing else catches on fire, which is exactly what they were doing.

[@tjlovesrachel]

Cool looking truck at 1:55. Was that a rehab unit or some sort of a rescue unit? Does the "all hands" transmission mean that any available on or off duty firefighters should come to the scene/get to a station and get on some trucks? Awesome video man. Good scene coverage and response videos. I liked the audio in it too!

Thanks bud! yeah Squad 3 is a really unique truck, was happy to get it responding. still trying to figure out what the purpose of L2-1 is but i was saying the same thing, some sort of rehab support unit but never got a complete answer, infant up until it rounded the corner i never even knew they had it lol. And yes! the all hands has all stations on the island respond as well as the volunteer FFs as both wildwood and North Wildwood are combination departments and than an off duty recall is put into place

[@1andonlybigmike60]

ALBERTO MADEIRA JR if you shut off gas to the area then you’re leaving every home and business in the neighborhood without gas. Also if you put out the fire right away, the gas fire then turns into a gas leak, which is worse cuz you can’t see the leak at that point. As long as it’s burning you can see where the gas is

[@demonracer2]

ALBERTO MADEIRA JR they were attempting to secure the leak when the fire started, the fire doesn’t simply just go out like the other comment when water is applied, the lines were stretched to cool/protect the exposures. The crew that was securing the leak was injured when the fire started and more assists were needed before they could completely stop the leak

Demonracer2 That is a gas fed fire right if you kill the source (the gas) wouldn't it been easier for them to put it out??? I sure the businesses around the area wouldn't have mind the gas being shut off seeing the circumstances.

5:18. I don't know how J. Cole has time to be a rapper and a firefighter. Crazy

[@thomasjensen6243]

You do NOT put out a natural gas fire....you turn off the gas. Put out the gas then to have unburned gas leak.......BOOM

11:20 guy in red is having a great time but the lad with 72 on helmet looks pissed off and bored of standing around with nothing to do.

Call went out little after 1800 ... probably interrupted a good supper.

[@douggriffin2910]

very good video, keep up the good work !!

[@demonracer2]

Thank you so much!

[@TheTruex56]

All I have to say is hopefully none the gas employees were injured or lost their lives

[@johnmcmickle5685]

Protect the exposures and let it burn.

[@j.t.johnston3048]

Over reaction by command put the rest of the community at risk by putting out an all hands call for this. As long as it's burning, the initial response could have handled this with PD assistance to evacuate the immediate area.

[@austingebel8859]

J.T. Johnston what if the gas line explodes did you think about that

[@mrrockdaddy100]

It's not

[@edwu8253]

So lucky the leak wasn't any closer to the bldg's

[@b3j8]

We'll hell, they should've sent everybody back and just let all these YT "experts" take care of it!
